Hi, Twas written.... "Has anybody heard the the "Fire & Skill" Jam-tribute? It just got released here in Sweden and I ordered it today. Found it kind of strange that I haven�t heard it been mentioned here yet." I`m a big Weller fan but have to say it really is a disappointing collection. Virtually every song sounds like an outtake or studio practice, the calibre of people on there is pretty poor in the main and like most tribute albums, chances are lost because versions are too close to the originals. Why do a cover if you aren`t going to add anything to it or indeed interpret the song differently ?? Saying that, the Beastie Boys version of "Start" is the exception to all of the above. I`ll take my leave now to make way for the now traditional barrage of Weller insults that usually follows mention of his name. After you........
